Wonder Woman #611

Written by J. MICHAEL STRACZYNSKI and PHIL HESTER; Art and cover by DON KRAMER and JAY LEISTEN; 1:10 Variant cover by ALEX GARNER


The penultimate chapter of "Odyssey"! Who is behind Diana's altered reality? Who made the world forget that she is Wonder Woman? Who wants the Amazons dead? And, most importantly, why? The answers start to come right here!
 
My thoughts:
My big gripe is that the actual pages for Wonder Woman were really short.  There was, I guess you would call it a bonus issue of Super 8 in the middle of the book and then a preview of another title at the end.  I understand wanting readers to try out new things to get them to buy more, but this time it felt like the story was shortened so they could add something that, to me, did not add more value to the comic or the reading experience.
 
On the story itself, Diana is now coming after the Morrigan, not hiding or running from them and she sees her symbol, or what we know to be her symbol that she has some memory of.  Then she gets sucked into a supposed preview of the future where she is taking out other superheros because they didn't do enough to protect mankind.  I wonder if that is where this is really going.
